The scientific publications are one of the basic dimen­sions of the evaluation of the quality of research of teaching and research personnel in Spain. The most used criterion for the evaluation is the publication of papers in journals included in the Web of Science (WoS) or Sco­pus databases. The objective of this work is to know that psychology journals, which publish works of legal psy­chology, are currently included in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases, offer an analysis and com­parison of the quality indicators of the journals in these databases, in order that researchers working in this disci­pline know the status of publications in their field of knowledge and provide them with the best choice to publish
